2161-2163 Golden Gate Ave, San Francisco, CA 94118

The property at 2161-2163 Golden Gate Avenue is a two-unit, single-story multi-family residential building located in the Park North neighborhood, owned by the First African Methodist Episcopal Church and constructed in 1900. The building's maintenance record shows several significant repairs over the years, including dry rot remediation of front entry steps and railings in 2007 (cost: $1,750), and the installation of a fire suppression system and grease hood in 2000 (costs: $1,500 and $11,500 respectively) suggesting a change in commercial use of part of the premises.

Earlier history includes some demolition activities in the late 1980s and early 1990s, and a reroofing project from 1996, though these permits either expired or were canceled. A street space permit was issued in 2002 with a value of $30,000. The building has experienced numerous parking-related issues in the surrounding area between 2022 and 2024, with ten documented incidents of illegal parking or blocked pathways/bike lanes.

Most of these incidents occurred in 2022-2024, with particular clusters of activity in March 2022 involving multiple vehicles, including a Dodge Ram and Lincoln Town Car. While none of these parking complaints directly relate to the building itself or suggest internal building issues, the frequency of incidents may indicate ongoing parking challenges in the immediate vicinity. The most recent reported incidents were in 2024, involving double parking and an illegal parking incident by a Tesla Model 3.
